Parks already has a working Tier-1; Recreation needs a similar departmental gateway for a new agency environment. Which GUI achieves that without buying a hardware router?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A new agency router in NSX is another Tier-1, copied in spirit from Parks. Add or clone it under Networking—do not buy an ISR, clone a vSAN disk group, or stand up a UAG.
Full Explanation
Parks already has a working Tier-1 and Recreation needs a similar departmental gateway, so the operator opens Networking → Tier-1 Gateways and adds (or clones) a Tier-1 using the Parks gateway as the pattern—creating another NSX southbound civic router without buying hardware. Ordering a physical ISR for the recreation VLAN treats a branch appliance as the NSX departmental router and skips the overlay Tier-1 model entirely. Cloning a vSAN disk group and attaching it as the Recreation Tier-1 confuses storage constructs with networking gateways. Adding a Horizon Unified Access Gateway and treating it as a Tier-1 confuses EUC edge access with NSX tenant routing. Exam caveat: cloning or patterning a T1 copies structure; still verify uplink to the shared Tier-0, locale services, and firewall defaults before attaching Recreation segments. Operational check: add the Recreation Tier-1 in Networking, confirm it realizes on the intended Edge cluster, attach a test segment, and document the Parks pattern fields reused for the agency environment. In municipal operations, record the chosen control and the rejected alternatives in the change ticket so future on-call staff understand which failure modes would affect city services. Re-validate after the next maintenance window that the same GUI path and realized state still hold under the current NSX build used by the civic platform team.
